Project LEARN recognizes

that helping all students—and especially our students of color—recognize, name, understand, and challenge racial bias, prejudice, and discrimination must be central to their educational experience.

Students Making Change

Students Making Change is a youth-led initiative that pairs adult mentors with Lowell High School students to learn about the history and social dynamics of race and racism in America, and then design and deliver antiracism workshops and presentations to peer groups, community members, and school faculty and staff.

Youth Leadership

→ Students lead planning, organizing, and advocacy.

Mentorship

→ Pairing students with adult mentors using research-based approaches.

Dialogue & Reflection 

→ Building understanding and trust across generations.

Antiracist literacy is no longer optional for our young people; it must be considered as essential as reading or writing.
